We will try to investigate the Online Courses from Harvard and MIT data and try to understand which of two Institution(MIT, Harvard) is the best on edx.
This data set contains report provides data on 290 Harvard and MIT online courses, 250 thousand certifications, 4.5 million participants, and 28 million participant hours on the edX platform since 2012.
We can see the MIT has 161 courses which is more than Harvard Courses
We can see that the first two instructors are peter Bol and Bill Kirby in which they provide 20 course and so on at the rest of the data.
We can see that MITx has 2.101121 M Participants which is more than HarvardX Participation which has 2.348736 M
We can see that the Certified participants follow Exponential Distribution
We can see that the Certified has a moderate positive relationship with the particpants who accessed 50% of course,the posted in forums and the particapants who Audited the course.
We can see the Certified participants from the MITx more than HarvardX in all years except 2014.
We can see the participants interested in HarvardX courses which subjects are CS and Religion,Humanities, and MITx courses that their subjects are Science,Technology and Government enrolled by participants more than Standford.
We can see from the violin plot that those particpants that interested in Government and Humanities more than Engineering and CS and we can conclude the opposite which is the participants which are still students interested in CS and Technology fields.
We can see their is a huge difference between the number of participants and the number of Certified as the maximum number of Certified participants from the course doesn't exceed 6000 while the number of enrollments increase exponentially
And with the boxplots and rug distribution in margins we can see the 2 Institutions are familiar except some outliers in HarvardX
We can see the more hours of the course,the more discusson in the forums may be because the course gets more complex so they need to ask questions about the topic,and the courses that has more hours has certified participants more than less length
Thanks for your attention...
